  • QFR by angiography may improve safety, facilitate global adoption of FFR and reduce costs
  • QFR comes with much more than an FFR value
    • Flow assessment
    • Shear stress analysis
    • Optimal projection angles
    • Stent sizing tool
    • Co-registration
  • Clinical validation of QFR is ongoing
